Hi everyone​ I'm Keith (Box Jockey) , I'm very new to the aquarium/fishkeeping hobby having just setup my first aquarium in April 2017. Since then I've been bitten hard by the hobby bug and now spend hours each night devouring any and all information, how to guides and YouTube videos related to the hobby.
I was at the year end meeting Monday night and saw an awesome aquascaping demo! That demonstration alone was worth the cost of the membership.
I'm looking forward to seeing you all again in September.

Welcome to the club and the hobby! You'll find the club a great resource for all kinds of things - fish, plants, info, how to, assistance, equipment, etc. 

What kind of tank did you set up?  Fresh/Salt? Planted? Size? What kind of fish?

Be sure to post some pics and reach out anytime you need any info or help.

welcome to Ovas! I agree the meeting was really good on Monday and I kinda regret not bidding for the tank! haha

This group is full of people who know their stuff about aquariums, they have helped me with advice and hopefully you find the group useful as well.

Looking forward to hearing about your aquarium.
